That is the answer, "decades of practice". At 89 I am going to keep
"practicing" until I get it right.

John & all,
I was mostly joking, or maybe just poking. I often tell new estate planning
clients that I hope to retire in ## years (currently 3-5, depending). It's
relevant because they ask about changing their estate plans, how I do it, &
what happens to their files when I retire. I don't really fault people for
wanting a lawyer who'll be around longer, though of course I think they
benefit from my decades of practice.

Actually this client sees great value in experience and the wisdom
accumulated thereby. In this situation though he values the expectation of
a long term relationship at least as much. His hope is that he can find an
attorney with years of practice ahead and years of experience behind.
As an aside, we should keep in mind that, although we have all seen
attorneys practice into their 80's with great acumen, we have also seen
attorneys retire burnt out at 55.
I don't think we can fairly question a client's decisions on these matters.

I think it's silly, and also outdated. A lawyer, especially one who
exercises daily, eats lots of veggies & gets plenty of sleep, can absolutely
practice successfully well into his/her 80's. I've seen quite a few lawyers
do just that - and they've been skillful and wise to boot. Since the
potential client doesn't seem to have a grasp on the modern aging process -
perhaps he/she is the one who is getting a bit too ancient! ;)

I'm in my mid-60's, so better stay away from me! My decades of accumulated
knowledge and experience are undoubtedly irrelevant (at least to that
client).

I need a referral to an estate planning attorney in the Pierce County area.
Client is looking for an attorney who will be active for the next 20 years,
so I am looking for someone in their 30's or early 40's.
Thanks for all referrals.
